"Smack... Click! ”

The missed connection caused by the mistake caused the baseball passed by the second baseman to hit the ground outside the bounds, and the first baseman Kazunari Morita saw this and could only hurriedly follow behind.

When he ran to the warm-up area in front of the fence and picked up the baseball parked on the lawn, the runner, who had already gotten up from the ground, did not take the opportunity to continue to the base, and was now standing on the baseball and reaching out to take off the protective gear he was wearing.

Therefore, he had to pass the ball to the pitcher on the pitcher's mound.

"In the first half of the fifth inning, the attack of Qingdao High School, eight bats, pitcher, Yagami-kun, back number..."

When the hitter Yagami raised his bat and looked at him, Ikuya Kawabe followed the catcher's code and threw an inside corner knuckle to home plate.

"Huh!"

After the Yagami Night swing sweep over the knuckle ball that is falling vertically at a speed of 116km/h, catch it with the glove that the hand has opened downward in a low position behind the corner side.

"Smack!"

“Strike.“

Ikuya Kawabe looked at the catcher's code, nodded, stepped forward with his left foot, and waved his right hand to the home plate to throw a high ball from the inside corner.

"Ping!"

A straight ball that crossed the edge line at a speed of 121 km/h was hit by the beater's Yagami Yagami swing his bat and flew to the left.

"Smack!"

The baseball that landed on the right side of the pitcher's mound was a boccia ball in the direction of the shortstop, and as it rolled forward, it was caught by the outstretched hands of the shortstop Naoto Araki, who was crouching in front of him.

"Out!"

Naoto Araki, who received the ball, got up and waved his arm to pass the ball to second base... Second baseman Gu Shigekuan opened his gloves to receive the shortstop pass, stepped forward on the base, and blocked the runners running towards him behind him.

……

"In the first half of the sixth inning, the attack of Qingdao High School, nine sticks, right fielder, Bai Zhoujun, back number..."

Kenjiro Hakushu, who was standing in the batting area with his legs apart, stared at the pitcher in front of him, raised the bat high next to the batting cap, and waited for the pitcher to pitch.

"Whew!"

"Bang!"

…

“Ball.“

The first half of the sixth inning had just begun, and Ikumi Kawabe threw two bad balls in a row, which made people very suspicious of his current state, whether to let him continue to support him on the pitcher's mound?

In the third ball, Ikuya Kawabe threw an outside corner longitudinal slider to home plate at the request of the catcher, and the ball speed was 111km/h.

"Bang!"

A longitudinal slide that falls diagonally along the edge line from the front of the corner is caught behind the corner by the glove that the catcher has opened forward when the hitter chooses to watch rather than swing the bat.

“Strike.“

For the fourth ball, Triangle Wucheng is ready to ask for an outside corner longitudinal slider like the previous ball.

"Ping!"

The slider, which was falling longitudinally along the edge line at a speed of 110 km/h, was hit by Kenjiro Hakushu on the outside of the middle corner and flew out to the right.

"Out of bounds!" The baseball that the batter swung off and fell to the right on the front row of the spectators.

In the fifth, Ikuya Kawabe stepped forward with his left foot according to the code, and threw his right hand towards home plate with a high knee in the inside corner.

"Ping!"

At a speed of 125 km/h, he flew forward over a straight ball in the low position of the inside corner, and was hit by Kenjiro Hakushu's downward swing of the bat, which hit the bottom and flew high backwards.

"Out of bounds!" The baseball that was knocked off by the victim fell into the home plate side of the spectator under the catcher's tentative pursuit.

On the sixth pitch, Ikuya Kawabe waved his arm and threw a longitudinal slider at home plate that was slightly out.

"Smack!"

A slider that falls longitudinally on the outside of the edge line at a speed of 115 km/h is caught by the glove that the hand has opened downward in a low position behind the corner side in the player's line of sight.

“Ball…“

After the ball was full, Ikuya Kawabe followed the catcher's code and waved his arm to throw a high straight ball with his belt inside the home plate.

"Ping!"

When the 127 km/h straight ball flew from the pitcher's mound to the top of the good ball area, Kenjiro Hakushu's bat, which was swung up vigorously, flew to the left.

"Out of bounds!"

On the seventh pitch, Ikuya Kawabe followed the catcher's code and threw a slightly out-of-board longitudinal slider to home plate, trying to trick the hitter into swinging the bat.

"Huh!"

A slider with a ball speed of 114 km/h that moves down longitudinally on the outside of the edge line, allowing the hitter to swing the air close to the top and catch it with the glove extended forward by the hand behind the low side of the outside corner.

"Bang!"

“Strike out.“

"In the first half of the sixth inning, the attack of Qingdao High School, a stick, a guerrilla, Kuramochi-kun, back number..."

When Aodo was ready to raise the bat high, Ikuya Kawabe, who raised his hands above his head, swung his arms and threw an inside corner longitudinal slider at home plate at a speed of 110km/h.

"Ping!"

The slider, which was displaced longitudinally to the high position of the inside corner, was hit at the bottom by Yoichi Kuramochi's swing of the bat, and flew high to the right.

"Out of bounds!"

In the second ball, Ikuya Kawabe followed the catcher's code and waved his arm to the home plate to throw a straight ball near the outside corner of the belt, with a ball speed of 128km/h.

"Ping!"

The straight ball that flew over the good ball area was behind the edge line, and was about to fall into the catcher's open gloves at the moment before the hitter Kuramochi struck it with a wave of his bat and flew forward.

"Smack!"

The baseball, which dodged the pitcher's reach, crossed the left side of the pitcher's mound, landed on the sand in the infield behind the side, and then rolled all the way to the lawn in the center-right outfield without being blocked.

"A hitter in front of a midfielder!"

By the time Yasuhiro Takatsuki, a fielder who had been in the depths of the outfield, ran to the middle of the center and right outfield and scooped up the ball in a crouching position, the runner Yoichi Kuramochi had already run past first base, and if it wasn't for the fact that he had already caught the ball, Yoichi Kuramochi would even have the idea of continuing to sprint forward.

"In the first half of the sixth inning, the attack of Qingdao High School, the second bat, the left fielder, Nanyunjun, the back number..."

As hitter Shiichi Minamigumo was getting ready on the batting area and turning his head to stare at himself while holding his bat high, Ikuya Kawabe waved his arm and threw an inside corner finger cross ball at home plate.

"Smack!"

The knuckle ball, which was falling close to the edge line at a speed of 113 km/h, could not induce Shiichi Nagumo, who had changed to a long stick to a short one, to push the bat to strike, and finally caught it with a glove that was extended downward by the hand behind the corner.

“Ball.“

In the second ball, Ikuya Kawabe waved his arm to the home plate to throw a straight ball near the inside corner of the home plate as requested by the catcher.

"Ping!"

At a speed of 123 km/h, he was about to move forward through a straight ball in the middle of the inside corner, but it was blocked by the batter Mingumo Shiichi's short grip, and it could only be bounced downward in front of the junction between the batting area and the home plate.

"Smack!"

The baseball, which rolled forward along the sideline after landing, was picked up by Ikumi Kawabe, a pitcher who ran down the pitcher's mound, and at the same time, runner Seichi Nagumo happened to run past him.

"Out!"

Ikuya Kawabe, who didn't want to get entangled with the runner because of the touch, took out the baseball from his glove and threw the ball to the first baseman in front of him, blocking him outside the base.

"In the first half of the first inning, the attack of Qingdao High School, three bats, second baseman, Kominato-kun, back number..."

When the batter raised his bat and turned his head to stare at him, Ikuya Kawabe, who was standing on the pitcher's board, suddenly turned to the left and waved his arm to pass the ball to second base.

“safe.“

At the same time as the shortstop Naoto Araki received the pitcher's pass, runner Yoichi Kuramochi fell to the ground next to the base bag and pressed his right hand on the base bag; Seeing this, the second base judge standing next to him directly raised his hands to signal safety.
